Hot rooms, poor airflow, or an old ceiling fan that wobbles and makes noise? A new ceiling fan can transform how comfortable your home feels while reducing your energy costs. Reed Electrical provides professional ceiling fan installation, replacement, and repair throughout Palos Hills.
Our licensed electricians install new fans, replace outdated units, and repair fans that aren’t working properly. Whether you’re adding a ceiling fan to a room that doesn’t have one or upgrading an old fan to something modern and efficient, we handle it safely and correctly.
Ceiling fans are one of the most cost-effective ways to improve comfort in any room. They circulate air in summer for a cooling effect and can reverse direction in winter to distribute warm air. When installed properly by a licensed electrician, they provide years of reliable service.

Signs You Need a New Ceiling Fan or Repair
How do you know when it’s time to call an electrician about your ceiling fan?
- Your fan wobbles excessively during operation. Some wobble is normal, but significant movement indicates a mounting or balance problem that should be addressed before it causes damage.
- The fan makes grinding, humming, or clicking noises. These sounds often indicate worn bearings, loose components, or motor problems that will likely get worse over time.
- Pull chains don’t work properly or have broken off entirely. While this might seem like a minor issue, it makes your fan inconvenient to use and often indicates age-related wear.
- Your fan is old, outdated, or simply unattractive. Today’s ceiling fans are more efficient, quieter, and better looking than models from even a decade ago. Upgrading improves both function and aesthetics.
- The lights flicker when the fan runs, or the fan won’t turn on at all. These electrical symptoms suggest wiring issues that need professional attention.
- Poor airflow despite the fan running means the fan isn’t doing its job. A properly sized and installed fan moves a noticeable amount of air.
If any of these describe your situation, it’s worth having a professional take a look. Ceiling fan issues don’t improve on their own.
Professional Ceiling Fan Installation for Homes
Proper installation makes all the difference in how well your ceiling fan performs and how long it lasts.
Safe, code–compliant wiring ensures your fan operates without creating electrical hazards. Ceiling fans require appropriate electrical connections, often including both fan and light circuits. Our licensed electricians ensure everything is wired correctly.
Proper mounting and balance prevent wobbling, noise, and premature wear. Ceiling fans are heavier than they look, and the fan box must be rated for the weight and motion. We verify or install appropriate mounting hardware and carefully balance each fan.
Improved airflow and energy efficiency result from correct installation. The fan needs to be mounted at the right height and positioned to circulate air effectively in the room. We help you determine optimal placement for maximum benefit.
Choosing the right fan size matters too. A fan that’s too small won’t move enough air, while one that’s too large can overwhelm the space. We can advise on the appropriate size for your room.
Ceiling Fan Replacement Made Easy
Ready to upgrade from that old, noisy, outdated fan? We make replacement simple and stress-free.
Replacing an old ceiling fan improves comfort throughout the room. Modern fans move air more efficiently and quietly than older models. The improvement is often dramatic.
Updated aesthetics transform how your room looks. Today’s ceiling fans come in styles ranging from sleek and modern to traditional and decorative. You’ll find something that complements your decor.
Safety improves when old fans are properly replaced. Aging fans may have worn wiring, loose connections, or damaged components that create hazards. Replacement eliminates these concerns.
We handle the complete process: removal of your old fan, installation of the new one, and cleanup when we’re done. You don’t have to deal with the old unit or worry about installation details.
Ceiling Fan Repairs by Licensed Electricians
Not every fan problem requires replacement. Many issues can be repaired, extending the life of your existing fan.
- Wobbling fans often need rebalancing or mounting adjustments. We identify the cause and implement the right fix.
- Noise problems may stem from loose hardware, worn bearings, or motor issues. We diagnose the source and determine whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
- Switch and pull chain problems are common in older fans. We can repair or replace these components to restore full functionality.
- Light kit failures sometimes involve just the kit itself, not the entire fan. We can replace light kits and restore your fan’s illumination.
Our approach to repairs is practical. We’ll tell you honestly whether repair makes sense or whether replacement would serve you better. The goal is always to give you the best value for your situation.

I had a few ceiling fans and light fixtures replaced as well as GFI outlets changed. I was also able to get new wired fire alarms installed the same day. I would definitely recommend Reed Electrical for any electrical work you need done.Posted on Google Jim GallaherTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an issue with a couple entryway switches where two of the switches turned on both the porch light and entryway light at the same time instead of turning on/off each one independently. This was one of those 100 issues on the repair list that I finally got around to addressing. I took a look at the switch to see if I could figure out the issue, but after seeing that the wiring appeared to be done incorrectly and one wire actually came loose during my inspection, I said yeah... I have no idea what they did (Previous ownership) and I'm not messing around with it. So, I put everything back and called Reed. Peter came over and quickly confirmed that the switch was wired incorrectly, explained what they did wrong, and had it wired back the correctly to where both lights now turn on/off independently. I will certainly call Reed Electrical again in the future to have an inspection done to make sure there are no other issues to be concerned about. Thank you for the prompt service! Edit-Note: The picture of the switch's wiring is how I originally discovered it and how it was BEFORE it was corrected. Unfortunately, I do not have an after picture to show. You'll just have to take my word that it is now wired and working correctly. lolPosted on Google Kathy MittelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a new lighting fixture installed as well as several outlets. The service was exceptional as always. The work was scheduled promptly and completed to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Reed Electrical Services.
